[Darfi]

Hi all,

Im noob in AutoIt:) could you please tell me how make simple installator:

- I will need to run some simple parameters which run some external file in graphical mode but in this I need to change some parameters (rollbox probably).

For example what Ineed to run:"start /wait msiexec.exe /i "XXXXXX.msi" /l*v "%temp%XXXXXXXX.log" AGENT_SERVER= Parameters which i need to change"

I was start with this(Its without any condition):

#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=C:\Data\03_Application\KODA\Forms\01_test.kxf
; Main menu table__________________________________
$CA_ITCM = GUICreate("CA_ITCM", 615, 421, 388, 411)
GUISetIcon("C:\feed_viewer_setup.exe", -1);
GUISetFont(10, 400, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
GUISetBkColor(0xFFFFFF)


;Progress button__________________________________
$Progress = GUICtrlCreateProgress(8, 376, 593, 25)
GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, $GUI_DOCKBOTTOM)


;Switch button___________________________________
$Change_button = GUICtrlCreateCombo("Choose location", 24, 104, 145, 25, BitOR($CBS_DROPDOWN,$CBS_AUTOHSCROLL))
GUICtrlSetData(-1, "[b]XXXXX|YYYYY|ZZZZZ|AAAAAAA[/b]")
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 10, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
GUICtrlSetCursor (-1, 0)

;PICture
$Pic1 = GUICtrlCreatePic("C:\suit.jpg", 184, -40, 505, 401);

;Start Install button
$Start_install = GUICtrlCreateButton("Start Install", 24, 208, 145, 113)
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, 0xE3E3E3)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

Could you help me how to solve it?

Have a look at Run

e.g.

Run("msiexec /i " & '"' & $scriptDir & "\Software\" & $fileName & '" ' & $switch)

obviously i have set variables to the names and switches but it will give you the basic idea

For creating an installation/setup package I would actually recommend using InnoSetup. It is free and is very easy to use. This what I use to install my AutoIT created application on users workstations.

If you want an installer launcher look at the Vollatran project (link in my signature)

In this case, however, the OP states it is already an MSI package. Best practice is not to repackage an already-repackaged application. Many companies now say that if you do so, they will not support the product.
